The alleged Tiger Woods scandal heated up even as the Florida Highway Patrol decided the golfer wouldn't face criminal charges for his mysterious weekend car crash. Woods has denied on his website that he and his wife, Elin Nordegren, were fighting before the accident over an alleged mistress, but he now admits to "transgressions" that have let his family down. New York nightlife promoter Rachel Uchitel denied reports that she and Woods were having an affair. But a Los Angeles cocktail waitress, Jaimee Grubbs, told Us Weekly that she had a 31-month fling with Tiger Woods, and gave RadarOnline two steamy text messages allegedly sent by Woods to back up her story. Life & Style magazine linked a third woman -- Las Vegas club promoter Kalika Moquin -- to Woods. Is the superstar golfer's shiny image tarnished for good?

Nobody should believe Jaimee Grubbs: The text messages don't prove anything, says Zennie Abraham in the San Francisco Chronicle. Grubbs claims she and Woods started a fling in 2007, but there are no times or dates for the texts she gave RadarOnline. It would be one thing if Grubbs had incriminating photos, "but a text message without identification information is a joke."
